Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

About the error : Looks like you are using a wrong compiler.
Did you edit the 'Makefile.in' to CC = gcc-3.3 , CPP = g++-3.3
? ? . Also : the g++-3.3_3.3.6 , gcc-3.3_3.3.6 etc. packages,
must be installed !

i am in desperate need of solutin

Hello everyone,
I am trying to install ns-2.27 on my amd64 Ubuntu 10.04and i get the error below when i try to make ns-2.27. I am installing the allinone package, all other parts tcl, otcl, tk and tclcl have been succesfully configured and made. I have been trying for several days and i keep getting stuck here. Please i will appreciate any help as I am running behind in my Dissertation.
Thank you in advance.

# 26 , @ Wonu. No, I do not see errors like that.
./install continues after the binary 'ns' has been created.
( Then there are errors in the probably insignificant subdirectory
ns-2.27/indep-utils/webtrace-conv/ (Has a special Makefile)
(No errors webtrace-conv/ on a 32 Bits Ubuntu 10.04, is only on the amd64 version).)

Thanks for the valuable guidance instructions for installing ns2.27. I tried to follow your steps to install ns2.27 on my Ubuntu 9.10 64-bits version. I downloaded the gcc-3.3...amd64.deb instead of the one you recommend. When installing the debian files, I get this at the terminal

I don't see any errors but the file is not installed (I think) because when I go to synaptic
they are not there. And trying to proceed with the ns2 installation results in error since I don't have the gcc3.3
